Cruz Pedregon 0.076 | 4.736 | 321.65 John Force 0.093 | 5.055 | 225.11

As we all know from yesterday's hoopla this is John's 393 straight start and certainly marks the first time a father and daughter have qualified for a Nitro Funny Car program at an NHRA national event. J. Force is 46-2 against Cruz Pedregon. Cruz won here in 1989 in a Top Alky Dragster and again in 1990 in a Top Alky Funny car. The Nitro Funny win came in 1995. That was what happened earlier, but reality was C. Pedregon unloads on J. Force and runs his best of the weekend. Beating John also earns him lane choice over Ashley next round.
